    Bug screen

    <div><br></div><div>Do you know how to use a sewing machine? &nbsp;I took industrial sewing a decade ago, but I've never had either a machine nor a place to set one up. &nbsp;I had an idea to make a jacket with an outer skin of Velcro loops, but that was before such a product existed. &nbsp;So...

    If you don't use the doors, you could just close the door on them.

    Refrigerator magnets can be cut in any length or width, and wouldn't require the attachment of velcro to the car, making them more attractive and transportable to other vehicles of equal applicability.</div>

    Adding a small solar setup?

    <div><br></div><div>Several of those at the first RTR went shopping for household panels when it was announced that they were on sale in Phoenix. &nbsp;Even without a sale, panels for use on buildings are usually cheaper than those sold for use on motorhomes.</div>

    Adding a small solar setup?

    <div><br></div><div>If you don't plan on using much electricity, it would be easier and cheaper to install an isolator and let your alternator charge both the starting and the house batteries. &nbsp;I use so little electricity that I've never gotten around to installing said arrangement in my...

    newbie here

    <div><br></div><div>The more time you spend in a less than adequate situation, the better equipped you'll be to plan and design what you really need, as long as you don't let your wants get out of hand. If I were starting out with just a car, I'd carry on an extensive dialogue with Butternut...

    Talked to a city cop

    <div><br></div><div>It's largely up to the owner of the property. &nbsp;If it's public property, the cops can do pretty much whatever they want. &nbsp;The only Walmarts that one can't spend a night at are the ones where it's prohibited by local law, and those are usually pushed through by people...

    Scavenging

    I used to work with a guy who lived in a school bus behind the shop with his wife, 10 year old daughter, and new born son. &nbsp;He would go out to the landfill after work on the days that the grocery stores threw away their outdated food, and always had enough to feed his family, usually...

    Talked to a city cop

    I was sitting in the Walmart parking lot, where I usually do in Gillette (Wyoming), with the side door open letting the heat out, when I heard a car pull up behind me. &nbsp;A glance out the rooftop hatch corroborated that it was a local cop checking me out. &nbsp;After he'd had time to call my...
